Griffin's findings indicate that attitudes toward the use force are influenced by authority, fear of victimization, quality of supervision, institutional operations, and role ambiguity. These findings suggest that interactions between officers and supervisory personnel and interactions directly with inmates have a more direct influence on the use force than either perceptions of the larger organization or an officer's individual characteristics.Criminal justice (LFB Scholarly Publishing LLC)Inmate guardsArizonaMaricopa CountyCase studiesPrison violenceArizonaMaricopa CountyCase studiesInmate guardsPrison violence365/.64Griffin Marie L1861209MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910968632103321The use of force by detention officers4467295UNINA
